can tell they need more math classes because they have all those cowlicks

I do get that this is the real differentiator to businesses in a chat app. how much it spies on employees. we need to unionize yesterday in tech

yeah dude, fuck you OP

a fulfilled life

similar game play to goose game, but your a penguin, trying to break into the research station and act like you belong for as long as possible. as you always wanted to be an academic.

your penguin might do things like choose recordings from a tape recorder to convince your “colleuges” in a conversation (they sound like the peanuts teacher though) that you are one of them. wearing cute costumes to blend in (lab coat, twead sweater, glasses, etc). if you are caught doing penguin things (waddling, eating raw fish, etc) you are kicked out as the lab has a strict no penguins policy.

if your duration in the lab exceeds the top x % on a weekly leader board you get accepted in to a school and the game moves to a school setting. except your penguin is competing with a mix of other penguins (other players) and actual students (npcs) to stay in the program. you can collect recordings in your recorder and change costumes. you can understand other peguins, but the actual students again sound garbled. if your likeability score gets low enough it is discovered youre a penguin and you get thrown out, as the school has a strict no peguin policy. you are released in the icy wasteland and you have to start your academic career over. if you last long enough in school you graduate the game gives you an nft which can be submitted on a website to verify, which you can brag about in the real world! you have an nft!

if you log in after this your Penguin is stuck in an office with students saying garbled things, you play your recorder, they always accept what you say as you have tenure. you can look out the windows at children playing. raising the question did your penguin really want to get in to academia, to be accepted, or something else…

this is what i imagine if happening in those kinder coding classes.

“today class, we will be delving into the wonderful world of ternary operations”

“at my old school we never transformed ourselves into anthropamorphic logic gates”

“carlos!”

“/shrug”

a whole hearted agree. Just a quote i was reminded of

when you spend so long fighting data collectors you eventually become what you hate

in my mind these people are working with a mutually assured destruction model. they are all constantly fucking with each other financially, it’s impossible not to with how much they own to not buy things from each other occasionally at the expense of another.

so I’m a billionaire imagining me practivslly giving my assets away in an auction. there are now a team of billionaires who can do literally whatever they want to me and there is literally no where on earth that can protect me. for a penance they could have me executed without consequences and I’ve given them each motive.

do you desire this, you fiddle stick muppet?

we’ve come a long way from masterbating to pieces of sexy drift wood on the beach

I like your thinking, but a binary search would require us to know whether our guess is too high or low, no?

Only have to guess 10 times the number of digits though, quite doable for a lottery win!

hell any war ever

my concern is it would fuck up my shins years later. same reason i don’t run with those leg weights.

I’ve started using k8up to save my photos and config to an encrypted restic repo in an s3 bucket. having a lot of trouble backing up my SQL DB though, not as easy as they make it sound.

can it stop my servarr from crashing? it’s my fault for dockering under the influence

I’m a waht!?!!

That boy ain’t right.

Oops 😬
